Smart Bets: Asheville City Limits

A new monthly series, Asheville City Limits, launches at Emerald Lounge on Thursday, March 27. "During this series, we will professionally record HD audio and video of an entire live performance to be published on our website and for syndication on local and regional media outlets throughout the Southeast," says a press release for the event. It also promises an eclectic mix of musical acts, sourced both locally and nationally. The inaugural show features Western North Carolina-based singer-singwriter duos The Moon and You and Tina & Her Pony; and hard-rocking, pearl-button-shirt-wearing Americana quartet Miss Shevaughn & Yuma Wray (pictured) from Paso Robles, Calif. 8 p.m., $7. emeraldlounge.com.
